Ivanti Endpoint is also a good product, but due to the control plane is more in to on-prem at evaluation time, we were limited with resource constrains and difficult to implement in scalable manner. Also required granular deployment configurations. In Cisco Meraki SM, those two points were eliminated and easy to deploy and scale.

I used TechPilot to manage mobile devices which was a great product and had some useful features. I say had, because after it was purchased by Securly the software support and functionary went downhill fast. Securly MDM is an inferior product.

JAMF was actually a really good platform but JAMF was built and designed for apple devices which did not help us with Android. At one point we needed JAMF because of the MACs that we handed out (Only like 3 MACs). Eventually it made more sense to just move the MACs over to Meraki because we were able to manage everything in one spot and Meraki tested pretty well with MAC support.

We were already Cisco Meraki customers so it was a logical step to use their SM product. That said, we did compare to other vendors and we are happy with our choice. Integration and ease of deployment was a big factor. While some competitors could offer lower costs, the benefits of keeping our SM platform in the Meraki environment outweighed that.

The only product I have used that is similar is Apple Configurator. While a powerful solution, it requires physical access to the devices which is not always possible, especially on a large site. Meraki is able to achieve many of the same functions as the Apple configurator but without ever needing to physically access the device, other than initial setup and registration.

It was the most affordable and provided our company with the features we needed. Even after multiple re-evaluations, we were still able to justify the on-going use of Cisco Meraki SM over the the more expensive options. The others provide some more features, but Meraki provides the most features a growing business needs at an affordable price.

I was not part of the team who evaluated the Cisco Meraki Systems Manager prior to purchase. I am not sure what other applications (competitors) were evaluated. I do know that the MAIN reason that we selected Meraki was because of the value it offers. The per device cost is very affordable and the features it provides is an excellent "bang for the buck".

The setup is incredibly easy compared to something like SolarWinds. We were up in running in a day and didn't even break a sweat while doing so. The layout is very intuitive and there is plenty of good support to give you a push in the right direction when you need it.

Meraki is more robust and integrated than other tools I have used. The analytics are really helpful for designing and maintaining a healthy network across multiple sites. The interface is clean and easy to follow as well as being able to handle large amounts of traffic effectively. The ability to diagnose, control and have visibility on all your devices in one place is great for any size organization.
